Post Header/Downpipe Recieved

Hey guys,

I recieved the RPW header/downpipe with HFC today. Will install soon.

I'll give you guys a genuine review once I'm done.

Mods:
RRM Pulley
RRM CAI

P.S Do I need to reset the ECU once I've finished installing the mod?
P.P.S Won't be taking any pics as AdamRA has already has a post up on this. I'll take pictures if necessary.

Cheers!

no you don't really need to reset anything as the computer will automatically do the changes for the amount of flow that is going though the exhaust. Good luck with the install

Can I just ask, did anyone have troubles taking the bolts out from the stock exhaust pipe that is connected to the resonator/downpipe etc...(flanges)

Did anyone take the bolts off the piping (flanges) first then make their way to the top of the engine or the other way around?

The bolts connecting the stock cat to the cat back were the only bolts that I had a problem getting off. Some Liquid Wrench and a little bit of leverage fixed that though!

I personally started with taking the stock header off and then worked my way down. It souldn't matter wich way you do it but I wanted to get the header off of the stock DP first so that I could just drop the exhaust all the way out while I was under there.
